As she casts aside her peers' cruel stare,
She sits beside an empty chair.
For who would want to sit beside a girl whose gaze wanders-
A girl who ponders,
And wonders how easy life would be if everything
Stopped.
She thinks about her peers,
Who believe everthing they hear.
Girls who need to care-
About more than their precious hair.
Boys who need to dream-
Other than beating the rival team.
If they stop and listen,
Then maybe they would see
Reality glisten.
